1.       How to add new function to php
Well, I'm far from being competent here but since I don't see any answers...
The best place to start IMHO is php-x.y.z/ext directory It have a script to create new extension "ext_skel". Use "--help" option to start. Look at the files it create. It helped me ...
2.       In that function how to write to the http stream
printf() will do but it doesn't seems to be correct thing since
headers (sent?) state is not checked. It means you can start output and headers will be sent _after_ your output. you can use printf() for debug purposes till you find appropriate way.
3.       How to access data from sql recordset
No idea. You should look in ext/mysql/*.c.
Please point me in the right direction for this. Thanks. -- Regards, Buck Robinson
